★★★★☆ 4.0 Mika Kim · Jan 2026

The food was excellent. We ordered the ShinChon Turtle Set #2 ($188.95) with pork belly, brisket, galbi, and marinated galbi...very generous portions and great flavor overall. Wrapping the meat with rice cake was a fun and delicious touch. The manager came by the table several times to check on the food and service, which was appreciated. It was quite busy, so the first round of brisket was a bit overcooked, but things improved afterward. A truly authentic Korean BBQ spot. I’d definitely return, ideally during a less busy time.

Shin Chon never misses! The food here is always fresh, flavorful, and super satisfying — from the banchan to the BBQ, everything comes out hot and delicious. You can really taste the quality. The service is just as great. The staff is attentive, friendly, and quick to help with anything you need. Even when the place is busy, they make you feel well taken care of. If you’re craving Korean food or want a spot that consistently delivers an amazing meal and smooth dining experience, Shin Chon Garden is definitely the place. Highly recommended!

Every side dish was amazing, and the meat was super fresh. They grill it for you, so it’s really convenient with almost no smoke. The owner and staff are very kind. One of the best korean bbq places in DMV.👍🏼

The food here was really good… super fresh meats and tons of tasty banchan that came with the BBQ. I loved all the side dishes!!! The only downside is the service… definitely could be better. But overall, the food makes it worth a visit.

We stopped by for Thai food but noticed an abundance of Korean restaurants in the mall. After a quick Google Maps check, we chose this one—and it did not disappoint! The authenticity was evident, with all the staff being Korean and only a few speaking English. The food was excellent for the price. We ordered the special combination for two, which was more than enough for three—my husband, teen son, and me. The highlight was the thick pork belly: it looked greasy at first, but once grilled and cut into bite-sized pieces, it was incredible. The fat rendered out, leaving the meat perfectly crispy and chewy. The two men also shared a seafood pancake, while I was already satisfied with the small dishes—like the steamed egg and soup—that came with the meal.
